2. Click the [...] button next to Edit schema to open the schema editor to define the input schema. In this example, the input schema is composed of four columns: *DELIMITER* and *QUERY\_TABLE* of string type, and *ROWCOUNT* and *ROWSKIPS* of integer type.
3. In the Mode area, select the Use Single Table option and specify the value for each column. In this example, *";"* for the *DELIMITER* column, *"SFLIGHT"* for the *QUERY\_TABLE* column, *10* for the *ROWCOUNT* column, and *-1* for the *ROWSKIPS* column.
4. Connect tFixedFlowInput to the first tXMLMap using a Row > Main connection.
